Its UVB replacement time. Currently using a Zoo Med Reptisun 10.0 T5-Ho Uvb 39W Fluorescent Lamp, 34". I'm considering changing to Arcadia (since we're replacing the zoo med so often), but finding it confusing. I see on the Arcadia website a "Dragon" bulb, which is 14%, but there are also "Desert" 12% bulbs. Our beardie is in a 48" x 24" x 24" viv with the Reptisun suspended inside under the mesh, in a Carolina Custom Cage 34" T5HO UVB+ Double GU10 Basking light fixture.
Here are the questions I've got:
Is the 12% where we need to be? Just want to be sure I'm not overdoing it with the UVB exposure. Not sure there's much wiggle room with changing the height from its current position. (Solar meters are pricey, but suggestions on where to get one welcome)
For those with experience with both brands, what would you choose?
Thanks to all!
